Who was Debbie Campbell? - [Series Prologue / First Episode]

Prologue:

Our first episode starts with single tape - as podcast producer Lynz Floren digs into his family history to uncover a hidden gem.

Act 1:

Meet Sharon Garrison, a onetime member Debbie’s 1960’s girl-band the Kandy Kanes. She shares her story of her brief foray into band life before moving on and ultimately finding a career in acting.

Act 2 starts with a voicemail…

We meet Branda Cline, an Oklahoma native who was producing a Women of Song concert. Next we hear from Chuck “Boom-Boom” Dewalt, longtime drummer for Debbie in bands like Rockin Jimmy and the Brothers of the Night and for her own solo shows. Lynz reaches out to Oklahoma music historian and author John Wooley to get some context about the Tulsa Music scene. And lastly we connect with Tulsa County Commissioner Karen Keith, a longtime fan of Debbie’s who used to create news pieces about her when she worked for the local Tulsa Channel 2.

Act 3:

...in which our producer Lynz makes a Debbie connection in the wild

We meet Sarah Popejoy, an Oklahoma songwriter who tells the story of taking career advice from Debbie many years ago, shares about her cool Oklahoma concept album, and invites Lynz to the legendary Church Studio. And this is how we meet the Church Studio, a character all its own within Debbie’s music history.

Coming up in Episode 2 - Its all about the Kandy Kanes!
